Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
E A

Verse 1:
E
I took to the highway
A
Went out to Pico-Crenshaw
E        A
Old friends, old friends
E
I took to the highway
A
The highway took to me
    E    A
Like a second skin

Chorus:
B           A
Rolled around in the evening
         E
Circling like a buzzard
      B
Trouble in mind
E       A    B   E
Excavating the space we left behind

E A

Verse 2:
E
Yes, I took trinkets with me
A
Left them by the crater
E        A
Hear ghosts, old ghosts
E
Smelled all the chlorine
A
I took the low road
     E       A
Where the light was just right

Chorus:
B            A
Crawled around in the glowing
         E
All-embracing wreckage
           B
Sun-burned and snow-blind
E       A    B   E
Excavating the space we left behind

E A
